Her Daily Thrive

Forget the usual mall run; it’s time for a total vibe check.  SM Supermalls , in an electrifying partnership with  StarPop , has officially pulled the curtain back on its newest anthem,  “Gala To The Max.”  Performed by the powerhouse rising girl group  DNA , this track is more than just a catchy earworm—it is a high-energy tribute to the modern Filipino "gala" culture and the diverse tribes that call the mall their second home. As of April 12, 2026, the soundtrack to your weekend has arrived, and it is officially set to take over your social media feeds and mall hangouts nationwide. The New "Third Space": More Than Just a Shopping Destination In the Philippines, "malling" is a national pastime, but the definition of a mall visit is shifting. SM Supermalls is no longer just a place to check off a shopping list; it has evolved into a  "third space" —that vital social environment separate from home and work. “Gala To The Max” captures this exact mo...

This Labor Day, SM continued empowering community opportunities as multiple Job Fairs were mounted across 15 venues nationwide. This brought together 650 employers and 17,400 jobseekers, with more than 1,000 Filipinos hired on the spot—a powerful reflection of how accessible, community-based platforms can deliver real employment outcomes. But beyond the numbers are real stories—of courage, determination, and new beginnings. Across multiple SM malls, thousands of Filipinos walked in carrying resumes—and walked out with something more: real opportunities, renewed confidence, and for many, a fresh start. The SM Job Fair once again served as a platform for employment, connecting jobseekers, employers, and government partners in one convenient, community-centered space at their most-loved SM Supermalls. For jobseekers like France Barcial and Mark Andrei Jimenez the experience was life-changing. “Hindi ko po expected na ngayon din ako matatanggap, bakasakali lang po” he shared, holding back ...
